Find Relief for Jaw Pain and Improve Your Jawline Comfort at Evolve Dentistry in Portishead

Are you dealing with persistent jaw pain, discomfort when chewing, or noticing a change in your jawline? These symptoms could point to a TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder or an enlargement of the jaw muscle, known as masseter hypertrophy. At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, we offer a therapeutic approach that may help relieve these symptoms by reducing muscle tension and improving the comfort and appearance of your jawline.

Understanding TMJ and Masseter Muscle Issues

TMJ disorders, along with conditions like bruxism (teeth grinding) and masseter hypertrophy, can cause chronic discomfort and affect the jaw’s appearance. Many of these issues stem from excessive jaw muscle activity, often related to clenching, grinding, stress, or even past injuries, which can lead to a bulkier jawline, headaches, and other problems.

Signs You May Benefit from Treatment:

  • Ongoing jaw pain or tenderness
  • Pain or stiffness when chewing
  • Habitual teeth grinding or clenching (especially during sleep)
  • Changes in jaw shape, such as a more pronounced or squared jawline

If these symptoms sound familiar, a visit to Evolve could offer you relief and improved comfort.

How Evolve’s Approach Can Help You

At Evolve, we provide a treatment option that targets overactive jaw muscles, which can help relieve discomfort while enhancing jaw function. By working with the muscles around the jaw, this approach may offer:

  • Reduced Jaw Pain and Tension: Alleviating muscle tightness in the jaw area can decrease pain associated with TMJ issues and grinding.
  • Protection from Further Wear on Teeth: Less muscle tension can minimise the risk of tooth wear from clenching and grinding.
  • A Smoother Jawline: For some patients, relaxing the masseter muscles can soften the jaw’s appearance, making it less squared or bulky.

What to Expect from Your Treatment

  1. Comprehensive Evaluation and Consultation

Your experience begins with a thorough consultation to assess symptoms, understand any specific concerns, and discuss your treatment goals. During this assessment, Dr. Yasmin Zeina will talk with you about your jaw discomfort, grinding, clenching, and any aesthetic preferences, such as achieving a more streamlined jawline.

  1. Personalised Treatment Plan

To achieve the best results, your initial treatments will be spread out every 3-4 months for the first year, allowing gradual and lasting improvement in muscle function and appearance. Following this initial phase, maintenance treatments are typically spaced every six months to help sustain these benefits over time.

Why Evolve Dentistry?

At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, we’re committed to delivering high-quality, personalised care for patients facing TMJ and masseter-related concerns. Our approach is designed not only to help with jaw discomfort but also to support your overall sense of well-being.
